Jack Williamson wrote many such pulp Sci Fi novels published in the 1960's era including this exciting Sci Fi classic.

From the Author's Note:

" The Trial of Terra was begun several years ago as a series of stories based upon the increasing astronomical evidence that we are not alone in space - that millions or billions of other planets in the visible universe are probably inhabited.

The series was interrupted when I signed a contract to write a comic strip 'Beyond Mars' about the astronauts of a future century. It was interrupted again when I went to graduate school and began teaching English, first at New Mexico Military institute and the University of Colorado where I am still working. toward the PHD in English Literature - and later at Eastern New Mexico University, which is in my home town Portales.

Now finished the novel seems to be just in time with what John Glenn and the other astronauts and cosmonauts well on their way to discovering what- or who - is really waiting for us on the other side of the moon"- Jack Williamson.
